Tales of a Travelling Panty Salesman

This is the story of a boy going on tour with a rambunctious rock band and exploring the US of A for the first time. The stories are undoubtedly worth reading and he has a real penchant for this kind of storytelling; descriptions giving an accurate portrayal of things in just a few words. The writing is setup chronologically along the tour and talks about the notable elements of each state and city that they visited. The title refers to the fact that the band sold panties as merchandise and that it was his job to sell them though the zine doesn't talk about THOSE specific incidents too much at length (though it does focus on other embarrassing moments). This was so good that I didn't want to put it down after I started reading it!
